Beefheart

Yesterday I left
I was falling down with the tower
I got out
It was coming out so you wouldn't touch
The glass shining in the city, cursing
What stinks is what never closes
I'd rather lose you
Than hurt you
But I know that the blue veil isn't the sky
The sky opens up when I wake
Heart of flesh
I want that flesh
The one that beats and screams when it burns
Even though sometimes it burns when it shelters
When the cold can set it ablaze
When it's dark in the sun
When it's dark in the sun
Then I look beyond the horizon
Even if I don't know what's coming...
But I know that the blue veil isn't the sky
The sky opens up when I wake...
And when it ends!
Then I look beyond the horizon
Even if I don't know what's coming.
